Advanced Pool Care contractors, serving Memphis, TN answer pool construction questions
Summer is in full swing and you may be sweltering in the heat and wondering, “what can we do to make sure this doesn’t happen next summer?” The answer is, “Become a swimming pool owner!” This isn’t as easy as just proclaiming it as it is a process that involves thought, research and a commitment to safety and maintenance and upkeep once it’s built.
Pool contractors are busy now with construction projects, but there is no reason you can’t begin the process now so that when the construction season slows down, you an get on the calendar for your pool project and it will be ready to go once next summer rolls around.
The swimming pool contractors from Advanced Pool Care offer these questions to consider when you’re talking with a potential swimming pool contractor for your project:
- How much will it cost? While it’s impossible to give an exact price on a project from a initial conversation you can plan on spending anywhere from $25,000 and up for an inground swimming pool.
- Do you have a wide open space for the pool? Will trees need to be removed and the yard graded in order to place the pool? Is your yard long and narrow or oddly shaped? Keep in mind that you can have a swimming pool constructed for literally any size yard, but the more landscaping and excavation that needs to be done, the higher the price.
- What kind of accessories can I have in my pool? You will be faced with a lot of choices as it relates to the size and shape and construction material of the pool. Accessories are also something you will need to make decisions on — diving board, slide, sunshelves, a rock waterfall, beach entry or even a fountain.
- How long will my yard be torn up? Swimming pool construction will involve the contractor having to get to your yard with excavation equipment. You will also have to accept the fact that your yard will essentially inaccessible during the construction project. It will be spelled out in the contract as to how long the project will take so you can plan.
- How long will a pool last? An in-ground pool is an investment of a lifetime that will offer many dividends.
There are many decisions that need to be made when beginning researching a swimming pool project, but the time you put in up front will make for a pool project that will bring enjoyment for decades!
